I love to bake. Constantly trying new recipes. If only I can learn to cook as well as I bake I might keep my other half happy :) The kids loved all the cookies while growing up but frequently ended up with mac & cheese for dinner.
I love Grandma's & Mom's cooking. Basically anything home-cooked that I don't have to cook! I'm trying to master my Grandmother's recipes that she brought from Denmark & Norway with her (I still need some work)! As with many old recipes, they don't really give measurements so any I can get to turn out well I will post.

At fred's, we pay tribute to the people who have given so much to the African-American community. Their efforts have helped shape our country into what it is today. In addition, every week in February, we at fred's will be honoring and featuring our team members who work so hard to make a difference in their communities. They are our Community Champions.
Titus does it all. As a fred's store manager, he is loyal to his staff and customers. Outside of work, he's an assistant youth pastor and Sunday school teacher at Living Waters Ministry. He's the founder of S.A.L.T. (Save A Life Today) Outreach Ministry, which mentors kids to do good in their lives. He works with Focus, Inc. — a nonprofit that empowers individuals with disabilities. Before all this, Titus served our country in the U.S. Army. The morals of loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity and courage are evident in Titus' life every day.
Chris works in the IT department at fred's. He has taken the skills he uses every day and implements them in his life outside of work. Chris is a member of the Media Ministry at Turkey Creek Missionary Baptist Church. There, he produces CDs, DVDs and PowerPoint presentations for Sunday services. He also develops media to be delivered to individuals who are unable to come to service, so that they don't miss out on the message preached each week by the pastor.
Antonio is a forklift operator at fred's. When he's not working, Antonio loves to work with children in the community. He shares the gospel and inspires kids, encouraging them to be all they can be. His enthusiasm connects with children of every age, and they learn so much from him.
An unloader at fred's, Joshua is very involved with his church, Montford Shore Baptist. He interacts with the children in his church and in other churches throughout the community. He works to create a positive impact on their lives, inspiring and motivating them through the gospel.
Nick works as a forklift operator at fred's. Nick is a long-time member of Word of Life Church. He has dedicated his time to helping people through the church by focusing on community improvement. He does this selflessly and enjoys serving those in the community.
Willie is a regional VP of store operations at fred's. He is heavily involved in the outreach and evangelism ministries in his church and serves as the chairman of the deacon board. In addition to that, Willie is the first vice president of the layman's department of the Atlanta Missionary Baptist Association and concentrates his efforts on trying to motivate young African-American males to become active in the church.
Gloria is a valuable team member at fred's, working as a stocker and picker. For the past 40 years, she has warmly greeted church members as an usher at Pine Grove AME. In addition, she serves as a Sunday school teacher. She also enjoys baking cakes and treats for church events.
Sherrie is a risk analyst at fred's, but that certainly does not define her. In her time away from work, Sherrie commits herself to her community. For the past three and a half years, Sherrie has served on the finance committee, in the outreach ministry, on the praise team, and in pastor support in her church, The Rock Church. But her passion is in the Mackenziya Bonds Foundation, which she founded. The Foundation helps educate the public about Schizencephaly, a rare congenital brain abnormality, and helps raise funds for treatment for Mackenziya Bonds, the daughter of a close friend.
When not working as a programmer analyst at fred's, Johnerson commits his time to many organizations in the community. He has given his time to Toys for Tots, is a MIFA volunteer, served on Men on Patrol through ATOP Church, volunteers at Kirby High and Middle schools, and is a Sunday school teacher. In addition to all that, he has been a superintendant at New Hickory Hill Baptist Church for the past 25 years.
Paula works as a stocker and picker for fred's. Outside of work, she is active in her church, Rice Hill Baptist. She serves as the youth director and also works with the program committee to coordinate the community festival every year. In her spare time, she cooks meals and delivers them to those in need in her community.
Claude is a driver for fred's. In fact, he was once awarded Driver of the Year at the company. And for 55 years, Claude has been a devoted and faithful member of Macedonia Missionary Baptist Church. He's a member of the Baptist Congress and gives his time to anyone in need. He serves as deacon in his church and also teaches Sunday school. In addition, Claude proudly serves as bus driver, picking up members of the church who have a difficult time attending. He serves the youth in the community by teaching them basic gentleman skills, like how to tie a necktie, how to change a flat tire, and how to treat people with respect.
Robert is a security shift leader at fred's. He is active in his church, Hunter Avenue Baptist. Robert serves as president of the male chorus and secretary of the deacon board. He frequently provides First Sunday Communion to the sick and visits the residents of St. Peter Villa Nursing Home. He finds joy in brightening their days and bringing smiles to their faces.
The fastest way to start saving money is to find a
fred's Super Dollar store near you.

2013 and earlier Lexus RX 350 Prices Paid and Buying Experience
Phillies08 Posts: 14
financegal Posts: 2I'm looking at buying an '09 RX350 with nav. MSRP of 44,026. I have been quoted 34,888, and a dealership in my area has told me they can beat it. I am going down there tonight to find out what they can do for me.
Does anybody know what they're stopping point is? I can't be too far away from it at 34,888. I just want to get the best deal I can. Thanks! -
financegal Posts: 2I'm in Los Angeles. I would think I would be able to get the same deals here as in SF, we are in the same state... so that makes sense.
I'm a little particular on color. I can't stand the Bamboo Pearl. I was hoping to go home with silver.
I was at Keyes Lexus in Van Nuys last night, I wouldn't recommend dealing with them. I was there for an hour. They knew about the previous quote of 34,888, and said they would beat it. We talked for the entire hour about pricing, but they were unwilling to actually SAY a price they would sell the car for. Don't waste your time there. -
Phillies08 Posts: 14
degirl Posts: 45Thanks for the info. How did you communicate with the dealership. Were they honest and easy to deal with? Did you say they will honor the same deal on other vehicles. I am intersted in the smokey granite mica with premium plus package and w/o navi. How far is Wilkie from the DE/PA line?
Thanks again Enjoy your new car. -
Phillies08 Posts: 14
MrChicago Posts: 4For those looking in the midwest- this is what I found when I was shopping. At least in the Chicago area and surrounding suburbs, if you don't want NAV, you are limited to models with the premium package only. If you want 18" wheels or HID headlights, you must upgrade to a 'loaded' version with NAV. I was set on a non-nav vehicle, however, I would have paid for the premium plus package or the 18" wheels if they were available for a reasonable price. When I called around the several dealerships, they told me the only way to get those options was to get an RX with NAV, which would have bumped my price up by $3-4K, which wasn't worth it for me. Dealers in other parts of country might have more inventory with a wider array of options - I think I read on this board that someone got premium plus (no-nav) in Boston?
coolmom09 Posts: 12The dealer I contacted in the cincinnati area quoted me $36,150 out of door for a RX350 w/ premuim, no NAV. I think it is way too expensive. According to him, they have very few 09 left "The RX 350,s are rapidly disappearing. We are already almost out of RX 350's with navigation, and color choices for the non-navigation are getting tougher. This is becoming a problem for all dealers in the region." Can this be true or is it just a pressure for sell?
catalinajerry Posts: 3
shrew_boston Posts: 5
biochemist Posts: 17MrChicago, you are totally right. I've been looking in the Chicago suburbs and all the dealers stock AWD RX350 with just the premium package. Only way to get Premium Plus is to get the Nav. People in different parts of the country have gotten pretty good pricing. I've been offered 33.6K for premium with heated seats (with rain sensor), cargo mats, and wheel locks from 1 dealer, 34.4K from another dealer, and 33.7K from the third.
Thinking of offering 10K off MSRP to all of them and hope one of them will accept. What do others think? Can I/should I go even lower? Thanks. -
biochemist Posts: 17
degirl Posts: 45Hi Phillies 08,
I contacted Wilkie via e-mail I am waiting on their reply. I have a few more ?? Did your vehicle come with any addition accessories/options? Also, did the dealership charge an administration/processing fee in addition to the taxes and tag fee? Thanks so much for all the info. -

I've started listening to mellow stuff when I'm on the bike
The 1990's techno stuff has been replaced by 1970's instrumental stuff like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXoevHyOF_o
The techno stuff has been replaced by 1970's instrumental stuff like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXoevHyOF_o
May I recommend this?...
Thanks Chavez! That's a pretty mellow sound for sure.
I must be getting old listening to 1970's instrumental stuff, Van McCoy
i just made a playlist for my ride to school tomorrow:
Echo and the Bunnymen- The Killing Moon Muse- Time is Running Out Radiohead- No Surprises Belle and Sebastian- Electronic Renaissance Misfits- Saturday Night Joy Division- Love Will Tear Us Apart The Jesus and Mary Chain- Taste of Cindy Cocteau Twins- Lorelei Arcade Fire- The Well and the Lighthouse Built to Spill- Else
Pains of Being Pure at Heart- This Love is Fucking Right
Galaxie 500- Temperature's Rising The Brian Jonestown Massacre- (David Bowie I Love You) Since I Was Six
M83- Farewell/Goodbye
Pavement- Grave Architecture Muse- Starlight
The Church- Under The Milky Way the playlist is kind of random but it has a semi-somber vibe to it. it's exactly what i feel like cycling to lately.
I never would suggest my tests were scientific. I merely checked the time that I could hear a car versus how long it took to get to me and every time was over a minute (with the current levels of fatigue, hydration, mental state, etc) -- at least a mile behind me. If I felt especially fatigued or unable to concentrate, I wouldn't have listened to music or audio books. I also know that I don't pay attention to music and other things that I listen to. My primary focus was riding my bicycle and I payed attention to the road and listening for cars. I can't listen to podcasts unless I give them my full attention or I get nothing out of them. I can accidentally listen to a song on single repeat for over an hour before I notice if I am doing something else. So with the time between when I'd hear a car and my ability to tune out things on the radio taken together, I felt comfortable wearing a single earbud. I would never wear dual earbuds.
I would never listen to music or other things while riding in traffic like in a city or heavily driven road. But in Kansas where I could see the cars coming for miles and could hear them for over a minute, and they were only coming by about 5-10 cars/trucks per hour, often with a decent sized shoulder, I felt comfortable. On the GAP and C&O which is a bike path and I didn't see any other people most days, I felt comfortable listening to audio books. When I got near Washington DC and there were loads of other runners and cyclists to contend with, I didn't listen to music.
I would say that listening to music while biking under certain conditions is no worse than people listening to their radio while driving a car as a simple distraction from monotony.
Listening to Highway to Hell by ACDC
And riding the bike it feels great
I have pretty much stopped riding in the suburban area where I live as it has gotten extremely dangerous with the idiot drivers around here. Now I transport my bike out to the fairly rural areas and trails. I would not even think of listening to music out there as I go there to get away from all of the noise for awhile. However, in inclement weather I will pedal on the trainer and I do listen to music because my basement is uber boring. The music I favor is a little off-beat for a white Anglo-Saxon person. I have developed a passion for J-pop and Mando Pop music with my favorite being Alan Dawa Dolma. I understand enough Japanese and Mandarin to understand what the songs are about but not quite enough to pick up on every nuance in the them. But I tend to ignore the words and just consider the voice to be just another instrument. To each their own and this works for me.

I have a Raspberry Ice Bougainvillea in a pot and right now it is very pretty and healthy looking but I haven't had flowers this summer. Last winter I left it in the unheated greenhouse and it survived but wasn't happy. Would it be happier being treated as a house plant during the winter? |

- Posted by buyorsell888 Zone 8 Portland OR (My Page) on Fri, Oct 10, 08 at 12:39
To get them to flower, let them get really dry between waterings. Yours is lovely, mine are much more scraggly. |
- Posted by dottyinduncan z8b coastal BC (My Page) on Fri, Oct 10, 08 at 12:46
Thanks for the responses. It took almost all summer for the plant to get lush and healthy looking so I thought that if I tried to copy the hawaiian environment (without the sun of course!) by bringing it into my garden room it might rebound sooner in the springtime. I will do what you suggest -- let it dry out between waterings. I wish I didn't lust after these wonderful tropical plants! |
I doubt your house duplicates a Hawaiian environment. House interiors are fine for us cave dwellers, but they're too dark and too dry for most all plants. Our eyes adjust quickly to the relative darkness so we don't notice it, but the plants sure as heck do. And heating systems dry the air to desert levels, dehydrating leaves and encouraging mites. A greenhouse could work, but not a house. |
- Posted by gottagrowthings (My Page) on Sun, Oct 12, 08 at 11:00
I have overwintered my bouganvillea in the home, east window and it did ok. I share your tropical cravings! |
I kept one for a few years, overwintering indoors in the brightest spot in the house -- a large obstructed east-facing window in the living room. A south-facing window would be better. It won't be happy indoors but it'll live until next spring. It may lose many of its leaves but will recover. Consider treating it with a mild insecticide before bring it indoors as you may bring in hitchhikers.... one aphid will multiply into millions in just a few weeks. Don't forget to treat the soil & pot, also. (I killed mine one winter when I left it out too long.) |
Last year we had excellent success in overwintering several Bougainvillea plants. Close to first frost, we cut them back to about 12" in diameter and moved the pots to the garage, little or no light, temps averaging 55 degrees (Indians - garage attached, but not heated). Watered very lightly twice so as to keep dormant and not promote growth. When frost was past in the spring, moved back out to patio and had amazing plants. |
- Posted by grrrnthumb z8a WA (My Page) on Wed, Sep 28, 11 at 20:19
I've overwintered mine for a couple years now the exact same way, same temps, perhaps a skosh more water. They look dead by spring but come back nicely every time. |

Supporters of Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown are happy and relieved he's headed for another four years in office.
Sheriff Brown says he's excited for the upcoming term. He says there are a couple of key issues he wants to address: the $120 million Northern County Jail Project, and he wants to continue to emphasize public safety despite budget cuts over the years.
"It is a very touching feeling to see so many wonderful people come together and give you validation of what you're doing and say we have confidence in you, and we trust that you know what you're doing," said Brown.
Brown's opponent, Sandra Brown, works as a sergeant in his department, which he said was rough, but he plans to get back to business next week. Sandra Brown won 42.98 percent of the votes.

Old Ass Movies: 'The Best Years Of Our Lives' Comes Marching Home Again
Features By Scott Beggs on May 19, 2011 | Comments (1)Your weekly fix of great movies made before you were born that you should check out before you die. Every February, I use this column to explore some Best Picture nominees that didn't win. In fact, it's a rare thing that we look at Oscar winners (often times they take care of their own publicity), but few are as fascinating as The Best Years of Our Lives. After a brief period of Hoorah American jingoism that shoved WWII through a processor with the violence turned down to something civilians could swallow in pill form (which either meant comedy or straight-ahead action), Best Years marked an attempt at telling the story of men returning from war to find that life had changed and so had they. It's an honest look at what shocking violence can do (that doesn't need to shock with violence), and it brought heroes back to a home front that simply re-framed the type of war they were fighting.
Vintage Trailer of the Day: The Best Years of Our Lives (1946)
Features By Scott Beggs on May 16, 2011 | Comments (1)Owning the Oscars that year, this brilliant war film from perfectionist William Wyler tells the story of three men returning from WWII to discover that the home front has changed and so have they. Alongside bigger stars like Myrna Loy and Virginia Mayo, Wyler also cast Harold Russell, a vet who had lost both hands. Samuel Goldwyn sent him to get acting lessons which infuriated Wyler (who wanted a completely naturalistic performance), but whichever method stuck, the performance was incredible. This was the first film (and one of the only) that Russell made, and he won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor that year. Not bad for a first timer.
Culture Warrior: Speculating Bin Laden's Cinematic Legacy
Culture Warrior By Landon Palmer on May 10, 2011 | Be the First To CommentThere will inevitably be a movie about the mission to kill Osama bin Laden – this much is certain. Recent news has established that Kathryn Bigelow might be the first to try to put into play one of several projects related to last week's assassination amongst several that are being shopped around. The reasoning is clear, as the material lends itself inherently to cinematic expression. The mission itself, in short, feels like a movie. Whether or not this movie (or movies) will have anything to say beyond what we already know and think and feel is unknown and, in Cole Abaius's terms, it will be difficult for such projects to escape an inherent potential to come across as a shameless "cash-in." My personal prediction is that the first movie that arises from bin Laden's death will, at best, be an exciting procedural that visualizes an incident we are currently so invested in and preoccupied with. But I doubt that anything released so soon will remotely approach a full understanding of bin Laden's death as catharsis for American citizens, as a harbinger for change in the West's relationship to the Middle East and the Muslim world, as a precedent for the possible fall of al Qaeda, etc. In short, we won't be able to express cinematically (or in any other medium, for that matter) what the death of bin Laden means until the benefits of time and hindsight actually provide that meaning. This is why I think any movies about Osama […]

The men in blue are back in Forest Hills.
As the Queens Chronicle first reported, the Doe Fund made its eagerly anticipated return to Central Queens last week, emptying trash bins and cleaning streets along the neighborhood's busiest commercial district.
"Clean streets are good for business," said Leslie Brown, president of the Forest Hills Chamber of Commerce, at an Austin Street news conference last Friday. "This vital shopping district is so necessary to our city's economic development."
The Doe Fund's Ready, Willing and Able program, which provides steady work and shelter for former homeless people looking to turn their lives around, was a mainstay on Austin Street, Continental and Ascan Avenues and parts of Queens Boulevard since October of 2000.
However, the non-profit program ended in May, when the voluntary contributions necessary to fund the $38,000-a-year initiative dried up.
"We had a lot of support for the program, but it was not enough," said Joel Mandel of JSM Management, who chairs the Austin-Continental Merchants Association, which initially hired the Doe Fund.
Mandel, along with a number of area merchants, said that after the program disappeared, the differences in the community were obvious. "Businesses were getting Sanitation tickets. Merchants were getting complaints from customers."
Mandel expressed hopeful optimism that the program, which now has a broader base of support, would be able to sustain itself this time around.
Much of that support can be linked to a number of Forest Hills legislators who helped restart the program with funds from their discretionary budget. City Councilwoman Melinda Katz came through with $5,000, while Assemblyman Michael Cohen secured as much from the state.
"We are thrilled that the guys in Ready, Willing and Able are going to be back in Forest Hills to keep our neighborhood looking spectacular," Katz said. "People tell me all the time how much they appreciate the work that they do, and how good they feel knowing these men are taking strong steps toward turning their lives around."
At the press conference, Katz distributed signs—advertising them as supporters of the program—to each merchant who had contributed to the Doe Fund. "When someone puts money into the Doe Fund, they are saying the neighborhood is worth it."
The councilwoman said the Doe Fund would operate five days a week, from Thursday through Monday. If additional funds are raised, the program could increase to seven days a week.
State Senator Toby Stavisky added that the Doe Fund had helped transform the image of Downtown Flushing in just a few months of operation. "I'm delighted how good the Doe Fund has been. It's like a new renaissance," she said.
Doe Fund founder George McDonald developed the idea for Ready, Willing and Able more than 15 years ago, when the city's homeless crisis was starting to peak. The program's premise is that a formerly homeless person can create a viable existence if they are able to obtain a minimum wage, low skill job, rent an affordable room and stay off drugs.
"Everyone appreciates when someone takes responsibility for their lives and does something to change their circumstances," McDonald said.
One of the Doe Fund's success stories is Donnelle Johnson, 42, of Harlem. Johnson, who began his first tour of Forest Hills last week, grew up in Chicago, but lost his job and his home to alcoholism.
Four months into Ready, Willing and Able—and sober for 13 months—he is grateful to have the opportunity to make an honest living and turn his life around.
"All I wanted was a purpose for living," Johnson said. "And, now I have it. Today, I have something to live for."

How do I prove the direct implication i.e if $ x \in \bar{E}$ then there is a filterbase in E converging to $x$? I can only prove the converse implication, as follows: (any feedback on this would be great)
Conversely, suppose there is a filterbase $\mathcal{B}$ in $E$ converging to $x$. We have to show that $x$ is a point of closure of $E$. Let $U(x)$ be an open neighbourhood of $x$. Since $\mathcal{B}$ converges to $x$, there exists $B' \in \mathcal{B}$ such that $b \in B' \subset U(x)$. It follows that $b \in U(x)\cap E$. Thus, $U(x) \cap E \neq \emptyset$ for every open neighbourhood $U(x)$ of $x$. Thus, $x$ is a point of the closure of $E$, and hence $x \in \bar{E}$.

PAWTUCKET, R.I. -- The late Dan Sullivan Sr., founder of Collette Travel, is remembered with a life-sized bronze sculpture in a park near the Collette offices in Pawtucket.
The bronze sculpture, two years in the making, is the work of Providence artist Chris Kane. It portrays Sullivan standing in Collette Park inviting visitors to view a family photo album that sits on a table engraved with a map of the world.
Dan Sullivan Sr. headed the company until 1990, when he handed day-to-day operations over to his son Dan Sullivan, Jr.
He died in 2005.
In The Journal's video by Sandor Bodo, you can watch Kane assembling and then finishing his work.

Fund This Film: 'Ghostbusters II' Original Vision Fan Restoration
Features By Christopher Campbell on August 24, 2013 | Comments (5)Were you disappointed with Ghostbusters II? Then you might be interested to know that what wound up in theaters was not the original vision for the sequel. And you might also be interested in seeing that original vision finally come to light thanks to a new documentary and restoration project in the works. Both ideas are the ambitious brainchild of director Bradley Bjornstad, who has set up a Kickstarter campaign to raise $100k for the "twofold" effort. The doc is called Ghostbusters 2 – The Original Vision and it will tell the story of what the movie was supposed to be, before "certain things happened during the production that altered the way the film came together." Bjornstad plans to get onscreen interviews with Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Ivan Reitman, Annie Potts, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver and even Rick Moranis, among others. This will be combined with the still-unseen deleted footage, including scenes with Moranis's Louis versus Slimer and a character (Louis's cousin) played by Eugene Levy, as well as storyboards Bjornstad will draw up based on the un-filmed parts of the original script. Also in the documentary will be a look at the process of the restoration project…

South Park: The Stick of Truth - Trailer and Creators
E3: 2012: Trey Parker and Matt Stone swing by E3 with some high fantasy foul-mouthed mayhem.
Looks okay. Name is kinda stupid though. I would just have called it South Park or South Park RPG.
i would like to play a south park game i watch every episode of the show r most the game looks awesome any way
Looks like a turn based RPG. This should be an excellent game. This genre of gameplay will suit the South Park universe well I think.
I can't wait to see more of this game. It doesn't look bad. Now if the gameplay can match.
It was awesome that Trey and Matt were more celebrated that any other "personality" during the Xbox conference.
@ArcherRO They've already been working on it for a while and how can you assume that it needs more work done? If you're basing it off of what you seen here in the trailer and whatnot, I don't know how much more work you can put into it. It looks great.
@NeoSA2012 It's not about that.But Obsidian is known to deliver great RPG's but riddled with bugs.I played most of their games and I will play this one as well.I just want them to deliver a bug free game for onceThat's all
.And I must agree with you.The trailer looks great.
@ArcherRO This is true; I can't deny Obsidian's bug infested game reputation. Hopefully they can deliver that, but I sorta doubt it. One thing about them though is that their games usually outweigh any buggy issues that happen in the games. We'll see what happens, and I agree, I'm definitely picking this up. Mainly because I'm a die-hard SP fan and I love RPG's, so this should be exciting. Hopefully.

Kent thwarted by the weather
Rain prevented Kent from exacting revenge over the Unicorns in their Clydesdale Bank 40 match at Southend-on-Sea.
The Unicorns claimed their only win of the campaign so far against the Spitfires by four wickets last month.
It was a defeat to frustrate Kent's early semi-final ambitions and a share of the points today will have hardly helped either after they had restricted the Unicorns to 177 for eight.
With an achievable target in sight, only three overs of Kent's reply were possible before the weather closed in.
The Unicorns had started fairly brightly with a half-century from opener James Ord in a 72-run second-wicket partnership with leading run-scorer Tom New.
The pair progressed the score to a handy 88 for one in the 20th over before the 24-year-old Ord perished for 52, soon after reaching his first Unicorns fifty, when bowled by Darren Stevens.
Spinner James Tredwell trapped New lbw for 31 three overs later before a collapse of four for 18, that included two run outs, left the Unicorns scrambling to put a competitive total together.
That was at least managed thanks to 21-year-old all-rounder Luis Reece, who struck an unbeaten 36 from 35 balls to give the Unicorns impetus.
However, with Kent in need of full points they were only able to reach nine without loss before the rain came.
The point was at least enough to move Kent up to third in Group C, having played a game less than leaders Warwickshire, who they trail by three points.

Central to the French postwar reconstruction/industrialization effort, Philippon and Lecoq were among a group of young architects who changed the face of French furniture production in the 1950s and 1960s. Inspired by the teachings of the modernist masters of the Union des Artistes Modernes (U.A.M.), their goal was to bring harmony and comfort to interiors, employing modern materials and techniques, to improve the daily life of French citizens in the challenging postwar climate. Philippon and Lecoq's furniture combines minimalism with a pervasive sense of architectural refinement and elegance. The couple approached interiors as well with an almost puritanical sense of functionalism, but succeeded in creating an extremely efficient environment which was still comfortable and humanly accessible. They received numerous prestigious awards during their career including the 'Rene Gabriel' prize in 1961.

AIAIAI is set to launch a new over-ear headphones aimed at music professionals. Where the TMA-1 enhances the live performance, the TMA-1 Studio enriches the studio/production experience.
In the late '80s, before he became famous as a member of the Compton, Calif., gangsta-rap group N.W.A., Ice Cube studied architectural drafting at a trade school in Arizona. In the video, made for "Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A. 1945-1980," the sprawling Getty Institute-organized collection of exhibitions on the postwar Southern California art scene, Ice Cube tours the Eames House in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood, marveling at the resourcefulness of the husband-and-wife team.
"Got off-the-shelf factory windows, prefabricated walls," he says, sounding as if he were admiring a tricked-out low rider. "They was doing mash-ups before mash-ups even existed."
For the exhibition Ice Cube wanted to recreate this famous photograph by Charles Eames sitting on a rare 1953 DAT-1 Chair.

McDonald's has put Patrick Norguet in charge of designing the new architectural identity for its restaurants in France. A project which is exciting in terms of its scope as well as in its technical and sociological constraints since it concerned McDonald's returning to its founding myth: familial fast food. If the brand was originally founded on the family, its image has little by little slid towards a more urban and adolescent tone. A return therefore to McDo's DNA with this new interior design that Patrick Norguet, literally and figuratively, matches with getting back to roots.
The plant metaphor, with its branching development, this root common to the brand and to the family, is transformed here into an architecture which is transversal and expansive: birch plywood takes root and branches out in the restaurant in order to create areas, functions and moods for different social requirements without compartmentalizing. This organic and functional furniture/architecture offers several possibilities, several eating choices from eating standing up for lone teenagers, alcoves providing privacy to family table service, a small revolution at McDonald's with digital control terminals integrated into the base and distributed throughout the restaurant. Henceforth, a mother can settle with her offspring at a table, order from a nearby terminal and wait for the meals to be brought to the table.
Patrick Norguet's design, which as always hits the spot, uses contemporary white which he counterbalances with fun colours without falling for "toy" conventions like for example the storage elements with the painted metal boxes included in the base template. The luminous ambiance and the quality of the acoustics are exceptionally meticulous and offer customers a comfort which is rare today, whilst the quest for a certain radical nature is revealed through the choice of materials (plywood, sheet metal, concrete, etc.), tested in conditions of heavy passage to respond to the constraints of such a popular restaurant.
The designer is using his "Still" metal chair for Lapalma for the seats with a new high stool version specially designed for the occasion. The ceramic floor also designed by Patrick Norguet for Lea Ceramica immediately lends a distinctive tone to the venue. These huge, ultra-slim 2 metre slabs break with usual visual conventions: warm and graphic without being carpet, they change our habits in terms of flooring to create a brand new typology. Piloted at the start of the year in the Villefranche-de-Lauragais restaurant 40 km from Toulouse, the concept was immediately appealing and spoke volumes. 6 restaurants are currently in the pipeline throughout France.

The Mobilier National is the successor to the Garde-Meuble de la Couronne (the entity originally responsible for the safeguarding of royal furnishings and tapestries), which was reorganized by Colbert in 1663; its structure still serves as the basis for the current administration's organization. In addition to maintaining inventories and conserving and caring for furnishings, the Garde-Meuble de la Couronne also acted as an important force for preserving classic techniques through its traditional workshops. It was responsible for furnishing royal residences and issued the commissions necessary for these programs. This remains the central role for the Mobilier National, which is now responsible for the interior design and furnishing of presidential residences, as well as official buildings (ministries, embassies, major government agencies, the National Assembly, and the Senate).
In the early 1960s, the French government, under the leadership of André Malraux, then the Minister of Culture, inaugurated a policy of supporting creative endeavor; the objective was to provide genuine patronage that would foster the revival of French furniture design. As part of this commitment, the Atelier de Recherche et de Création (ARC) was established in 1964 under the direction of Jean Coural. The mission of this entity was to promote contemporary French styles, providing designers with modern technical resources and manufacturers with distribution opportunities, based on carefully directed research.
The ARC is a research laboratory with a highly qualified staff devoted to studying new materials and creating prototypes that are developed through collaboration with designers and in close cooperation with interested manufacturers. The design models remain the property of the government but may be subsequently distributed by a French producer.
The finest designers of the 1960s and 1970s worked with Mobilier National, and the most significant creations of the era were products of this venture. Since its inception, the ARC has produced over 500 pieces of furniture, including special commissions for french pavilions at expositions of Montreal and Osaka, presidential residences and offices, and more recently the French embassy in Berlin and the Ministry of Culture and of Communication.

The Centre Pompidou-Metz presents the first major exhibition in France dedicated to the work of Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec.
A fabulous Bivouac, staged across 1,000 square metres in Galerie 3 of the Centre Pompidou-Metz, this exhibition of works by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec sets out the result of almost fifteen years of mutual collaboration. Their first major solo show in France, Bivouac highlights an exceptional international career, during which the two brothers have worked with some of the greatest names in design, been crowned by numerous awards and the presence of their work in public collections.
Imagined as a temporary encampment – hence its name – Bivouac is deliberately divested of scenographic elements other than the Bouroullecs' work. Movement is imparted by contrasting scales, transparency and superpositions. Visitors are invited to wander around the gallery, moving between prototypes and finished objects, mass-produced and hand-crafted works. Bivouac highlights the immense diversity of these creations and economies achieved in production. It also addresses key concepts in the Bouroullecs' research: objects which are nomadic, ephemeral, modular, organic, flexible.
The exhibition is neither an inventory nor a retrospective of their work. Rather, it illustrates the current state of their designs and research, in constant evolution.
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, Bivouac, 7 October - 30 July, at Centre Pompidou-Metz
The architectural model gained new prominence after a period of decline when it became a popular tool for design education and practice in the early twentieth century. This revival is usually associated with the turn towards objectivity and the search for expressive means to communicate ideas in three dimensions–but how was the model transformed in the age of its mechanical reproducibility?
Modernism in Miniature: Points of View explores the encounter between photography and model-making between 1920-1960. It focuses on model photography as a distinctive genre and suggests that the so-called 'model boom' was inextricably bound up with the explosion of modern mass media.
The objects on display illustrate a variety of visual practices ranging from straight records of study models to hyper-realist photomontage. Channelled by the illustrated press, miniatures reached out to a wide public and, in some cases, acquired enduring cult status. By revisiting a widespread yet oft-neglected imagery, the exhibition provokes questions about the relationship between media in architectural culture and the specific impact of photography on the perception of the miniature.
Modernism in Miniature: Points of View, September 22 – January 8, at Octagonal Gallery, The Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA), Montréal, Québec
"During the London Design Festival, The Victoria & Albert Museum invited us to intervene in any space we wanted within the Museum: the result is Textile Field an installation 30 meters long and 8 meters wide which takes over 240m sq of the floor of the famous Raphael Cartoons Gallery.
"An invitation to lascivious reverie. Our intention is to propose a different, casual approach to freely experience what can be a quite intimidating environment, such as a museum. We conceived an expansive, coloured foam and textile piece with gentle inclinations to produce a sensual field on which to comfortably lounge while meditating on the surrounding Raphael Cartoons. Everyone can immerse into this temporary installation, for a minute, an hour or more, that is the idea. No efforts, no apprehension just contemplation."

The Kronish House, one of a handful of Beverly Hills residences designed by Modernist architect Richard Neutra, appears headed for demolition. Please Sign the petition to save the Kronish House
The house, which is not visible from the street, has been "terribly neglected, but the bones are still there," said Dion Neutra, an architect who teamed up with his late father, Richard Neutra, on the project. "The new owner thinks it would be more valuable to tear it down and have empty land."
Dion Neutra and the Los Angeles Conservancy say the loss of the Kronish House would be akin to the 2002 demolition of Neutra's 1963 Maslon House in Rancho Mirage. That 5,000-square-foot, six-bedroom landmark was flattened even after assurances from a real estate agent that the new owner was thinking of restoring it. Preservationists across the nation protested the loss.
Unlike Los Angeles, Pasadena, Long Beach and several other cities, Beverly Hills has no preservation ordinance.
"The city of Beverly Hills currently has no way to even examine the situation before it's too late," said Linda Dishman, the conservancy's executive director. "They're taking important steps toward providing the 'carrot' through preservation incentives like the Mills Act, but they have no 'stick' in the form of protections."
Named for its original owner, real estate developer Herbert Kronish, and built in 1954, the one-story house sits at the end of a 250-foot-long driveway on a two-acre "flag" lot. With 6,891 square feet of living space, six bedrooms and 5 1/2 bathrooms, the contemporary home is one of the architect's largest in Southern California, according to Dion Neutra.

From Las Vegas To New Hampshire, "Recycled Percussion" Play A Hometown Show
In 2009 the New Hampshire based "junk rock" band Recycled Percussion successfully made it to the final round of NBC's show "America's Got Talent". For their final performance the four piece band pounded away on assorted junk as water rained down on them and strobe lights flashed in rhythm. After coming in third place in the competition out of 100,ooo acts, Recycled Percussion landed a headlining show in Las Vegas where they're still going strong. This Thursday the band will finish up a string of homecoming shows at The Music Hall in Portsmouth. Our guest is founding member of Recycled Percussion and Legacy X Justin Spencer.

Indarri Falls, in Boodjamulla (Lawn Hill) National Park, is a scenic waterfall that separates the upper and middle gorges in Lawn Hill Gorge. Indarri Falls can be accessed by the 3.8 kilometre Indarri Falls walking track, one of two walking tracks that explore the western side of the camping area.
... moreThe Indarri Falls track meanders through the dry sandstone landscape to a vantage point overlooking the falls on the rim of the gorge. This loop track then returns via the hilltops and a steep descent down the ridge behind the camping area. At the falls, refresh in the cool water and watch purple-crowned fairy-wrens and crimson finches in the creek-side vegetation.
It is a moderate walk, with a steep descent, if walked in a clockwise direction. It is best walked in the early morning.
... lessDuration | 1.5 Hours | Itinerary Type | Land |
Distance | 3.8 Kilometres | Itinerary Route | Return |
Mode of Travel | Canoe Walk | Level of Difficulty |
The Indarri Falls track is managed by the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service. Please note that this map only shows an indicative start point for the walk. The track route and end point are not shown and this map cannot be used for navigation purposes. Please see the Queensland National Parks, Recreation, Sport and Racing web site for detailed maps and the latest park information, including opening hours and safety messages. When you are in the park, make sure you refer to signs at the start of the track for more information.
Indarri Falls can also be reached by canoe. This three kilometre return canoe trip takes about one hour and is an easy paddle from the camping area through the middle gorge to the falls.
From the canoe hire landing, paddle upstream to the spectacular orange sandstone walls of the middle gorge and continue to Indarri Falls. A landing is provided here so you can have a rest and a swim before returning.
Enjoy skimming through carpets of water lilies, watching for turtles near the creek' edge and gazing up at the towering walls of the gorge. Please do not climb on the waterfalls. Cover up and wear a hat and sunscreen as it can be very hot.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"This card was used to provide hotel information to our guests for our destination wedding. The palm tree and colors really set the beach tone. I was impressed with the quality of the paper (I didn't upgrade)."
"I loved the products! On the invitation I got the pearl shimmer but you can barely see it. The texture of the RSVP cards and the direction/reception cards was much better. I chose sandstone for all of my cards. Our colors are egplant and tan/sand. At first I thought I had chosen a light purple but it must have been my monitor but I loved our save the dates which were also "On The Shoreline" and sandstone so I went with it. I was afraid it was going to be too plain but I feel they are perfect! Text was made to fit I am very satisfied with these invitations I just wish there was more shimmer. Great invitations! Very happy!"
"- I love this website, I love how you can customize your invitations, cards, etc and see what they look like right in front of your eyes before you even order - The quality is amazing, and everything I have ordered (save the dates, wedding invitations, RSVPs, enclosure cards, and address labels) has been absolutely amazing! I have had no disappointments and have been beyond impressed and happy everytime"
"I had some issues with some spots on the cards, so they did have to reprint a few times. But Wedding Paper Diva's has EXCELLENT customer service. I was so please with how helpful all the agents were and responded quickly and did their best to resolve the problem. We did finally get them printed without the "marks" I was seeing and LOVE THEM. Already had compliments on them from our guests. Thank you Wedding Paper Divas!"
"This is an excellent addition for a destination wedding when you need to get a lot of information out to your guests. I was able to fill the card with specific information yet it didn't look crowded or overdone. Search all of the available print font to find the one you like. There are many more than just the one's suggested for the stationary. I ended up with a completely different one than the traditional and it looked great."

Does anyone know our last frost date for this spring? (I am in central NJ and would follow the one listed for Trenton)
All I can find on websites is a general one, meant to apply to any given year (and as we all know that doesn't hold true lately, thanks to global warming!). Last spring my local nursery gave something like May 14th as the frost date. So apparently they get a different date than the general one listed? Anyone have other info on this? Thanks! :) |
Follow-Up Postings:
A good rule of thumb is after Mother's Day in Central NJ. I'm near New Brunswick. |
I live in northeast coastal monmouth county and rarely do I have a frost after april 1 although the soil and air are still too cold for tropicals |
I'm in Cherry Hill, and I remember my walls-o-water over the tomatoe seedlings having snow on them the first week of April one year. (The seedlings survived just fine.) We usually have a cold snap during the first 2 weeks of May, but weather.com gives us the 10 day forecast, so you can make your own judgement on when to plant annuals. |
Hi, this site gives April 3 for the frost date, earlier than the date I usually see. For Newark NJ, in the northern/central part of state. Keep in mind the micro-climate can have as much as a 10-degree or more difference. For ex I garden in a community garden which is wide open to the winds, and the last frost occurs there later than in the community in which I live. If your plants are sheltered, for example by your house, if they are on the eastern/southern side of the house, can considerably raise the temp. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Frost date NJ
